    I hate to sound like a jerk, but I disagree with SO many comparisons in this thread its unbelievable... particularily the one about Joe Frazier and Bernard Hopkins. I think the only similarities between those two is that they're both black, they're both from Philly and they both box(ed) for a living

    Ok I'll contribute, and of course people will probably disagree with me, but...

    Yuriorkis Gamboa-Mike Tyson... just the way he quickly cuts off angles and closes the distance on opponents. He even does the Tyson "peek a boo" bobbing (see his last fight against that Al Seeger fella), and of course he has great handspeed and heavy hands.
